It all depends on what you want to do. Usually, we try to avoid sharing buffers 
read/write between multiple process, it makes debugging much harder - 
especially buffer leaks or use-after-free...
Here is an example to share VPP buffers read-only with snort so that snort can 
inspect traffic and gives a verdict back without any copy:
